A quick and easy one-pan ground chicken fried rice recipe that is better than takeout and perfect for a weeknight meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 3 cups cooked and cooled rice (leftover rice works best)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 green onions, sliced

Instructions

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add ground chicken and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  2. Add garlic and onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add frozen peas and carrots and cook for another 3-5 minutes until tender.
  4. Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty side and scramble until cooked through.
  5. Add the cooked rice, ground chicken, soy sauce, and sesame oil to the skillet. Stir everything together and cook until heated through, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Stir in the sliced green onions before serving.

Notes

  • For best results, use day-old rice.
  • Adjust soy sauce to your preference.
  • Add other vegetables like broccoli florets or bell peppers if desired.
